For those hard-to-start December days, create a daily jumpstart ritual. Perhaps it's turn-on-the-coffee-pot or maybe open-the-morning-paper time. By the time you've finished, you've allowed the fog to clear, and the rest of the day will fall into place like clockwork! Success assured!
Start now making room for those fresh Christmas toys and gifts. Donate less-used items in time for them to become someone else's Christmas joy, and you'll have less guilt in the presents YOU GIVE AND RECEIVE!
Turn off your electronic devices for an afternoon. Take a walk with a friend. Watch a favorite movie. If that's not enough choices, take public transportation somewhere ... it doesn't matter where. The bus, a subway, even an escalator. Make each thing about YOU, and you'll enter the December holiday season with a refreshed outlook and attitude. You can do this. As the old song says, "We are women, let us roar!"
Start your December GRATITUDE JOURNAL today! Track what you accomplish each day and what you're grateful for, and by Christmas, you'll have a holly, jolly good time, indeed!
Spend Black Friday this year eating leftovers. Stay in your slippers ... ALL DAY. Sometimes your sanity is more important than another big-screen television. Stay home, disconnect ... just DO IT!
